Dr. A.R. Campbell (another Great Scot) was a
Texas doctor who discovered that smallpox was only spread by the
bite of the bloodsucking insect called the BEDBUG or Cimex Lectularius.
Cimex is the Latin for "bug" and Lectularius is Latin for
"couch" or "bed." Dr. Campbell proved that smallpox is not
contagious and is not an airborne disease.

Dr. Campbell graduated from the University of
Tulane Medical School and was licensed to practice medicine by the State of
Texas. He was president of the San Antonio Academy of Medicine and was a
member of the Bexar County Medical Society.

Dr. Campbell was another victim of
the Medical Inquisition. This great doctor, scientist and naturalist is not
mentioned in any of the hundreds of biographies on medical men and their
discoveries.

Dr. Campbell discovered how to colonize
bats in order to destroy the malaria carrying mosquito.

Dr. Campbell was the head Bacteriologist for
the city of San Antonio, Texas. His work on eradicating the malaria causing
mosquito led him to construct a BAT HOUSE and colonize bats as you would
bees. For his great discovery, he was nominated for the Noble Prize for
Medicine by the State of Texas on Feb. 10,1919.

WHEREAS, Dr. Chas. A. R. Campbell, of San
Antonio, has rendered the State of Texas and humanity valuable service
in his original and conclusive experiments during the past seventeen
years for the eradication of malaria by the cultivation of bats, the
natural enemy of mosquitoes; and
WHEREAS, the world's greatest Sanitarian, Gen. W. C. Gorgas, the Board
of Health of the State of Texas, the San Antonio Medical Society, and
other sections have given this natural hygienic measure their
unqualified endorsement; and
WHEREAS, the Italian Government has given special recognition to his
work and distinguished service as well as other foreign countries; and,
WHEREAS, the colossal economic loss caused by malaria is sufficient to
warrant the State and Nation in giving this natural hygienic measure
full encouragement; therefore, be it
RESOLVED, by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring, that
the Legislature of the State of Texas, endorse the work of Dr. Chas. A.
R. Campbell in his original and thoroughly scientific work, and
respectfully suggest and commend his name as worthy of the greatest
reward for the service of humanity, a Nobel Prize.

Speaker of the House.

President of the Senate.

Mitchell's Lake is located about 10 miles from San Antonio,
Texas. The lake covers an area of about 900 acres. Into this lake, flowed by
gravity all the sewage of the City of San Antonio (population in 1920 of
161, 379). Before the Bat Roost was built, mosquitoes bred in such numbers
as to actually drive the men from the work of irrigating their crops at
night, and forced them to let their crops go to ruin. Within 3 years of its
construction the mosquito problem was well under control.

A letter to Dr. Campbell from W. C. Gorgas,
Surgeon General of the U.S. Army.

Foreign Nations loved his Bat House.

Dr. Campbell was inundated with letters from
around the world requesting more information on his Bat House.

All of the Bat House experiments were
financed by Dr. Campbell from his modest income as a physician in San
Antonio. His other great passion was finding the CAUSE of smallpox which was
ravaging Mexico just across the border. Like any REAL Doctor he was more
interested in finding the cause of a disease than treating the
symptoms.

He applied to the Rockefeller Institute for
money to help with his smallpox research but was turned down because he was
not a vaccinating "doctor." The Medical Inquisition is not interested in
finding permanent cures for ANY disease. He are the 3 chapters on smallpox
from his book Bats, Mosquitoes and Dollars:

When the good doctor used the title for his
book, Bats, Mosquitoes and DOLLARS . . . he wasn't talking about
dollars from the Rockefeller Institute, the Federal Government, the Nobel
Prize money or the drug companies. He received NO money from any of those
sources. He was talking about bat droppings which are called GUANO. Unlike
bees, bats do not make honey but they produce a high potency fertilizer
called GUANO. Guano can be used as a high potency fertilizer because it is
rich in iron and other minerals. Dr. Campbell was able to use the money from
the sale of GUANO to further his scientific research.
